Special Moments » Life growing out of death

A Brief Background Story

The small stump that hosted the small mushrooms and grass grew in our front yard. The tree fell over and I noticed the photo as we began to tow the tree away. I immediately stopped and declared that we should not tow it away until I took the photo. Photos can be found in strange places : )

Hi! I'm John Elliott

Ten years ago, my digital camera, with high quality lens and close-up capabilities, became a window to marvelous visual discoveries. Through the lens of the camera, I took a closer look at things encountered and found marvelous intricacies, hidden geometries, textures and beauty.

My photographs are expressions of what I see.

Although I enjoy many categories of photographic subjects, waters and flowers are my primary fascinations. I am most comfortable when I am photographing waterfalls, reflective ponds, blooms and gardens.

It is with great pleasure that I see others enjoying my photos and becoming inspired to search for their own visual treasures.
